“Don't Touch That Dial!”

In "Don't Touch That Dial!", the Gen X team fractures under pressure as Banshee reaches out to the isolated Penance, while Paige grapples with the devastating truth of the Legacy Virus, turning to drink in quiet desperation. Meanwhile, a group of younger mutants ventures into New York to meet Emma at the Frost Foundation—only to stumble upon a bloodbath: Hemingway, a member of Gene Nation, has killed her staff and vanished with their teacher. Written by Scott Lobdell and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Chris Bachalo and Mark Buckingham, this issue pulses with tension and emotional weight, all under the striking cover by Bachalo and Buckingham.
